Meredith at MCTaylor Designs has been kind enough to do another bow giveaway for the fall season! Yah! Thanks Meredith!! This is the fall bow that is up for grabs! It is a medium size bow with lots of dots!

Meredith has had her Etsy shop for over a year but has been crafting much longer than that! She has a shop full of jewelry and bows to meet any one's needs. Meredith started her craft with jewelry and now 11 years later, she is still making jewelry! Meredith does stuff for weddings, proms, holidays, parties... if you need it, she can make it! Meredith expanded her craft to bows after the birth of first daughter. Now a busy mother of two girls, she makes double the bows! For Meredith, her favorite part of bow making is seeing the smiles on the faces of proud Mama's as their little girls wear her bows!

Recently Meredith has been spending her time making holiday bows for the upcoming Fall seasons. She has a SHOP FULL of bows (LOTS on clearance so check them out!) and lots of jewelry! She has offered to do a bow giveaway again. This bow is for a medium size bow. The giveaway will run from Oct. 5 till Oct. 15 so you have TEN DAYS to get in on this!!

About Me

This is the ongoing story of our family and holding on to the dreams of our children, the miracles of our life that are bigger than we ever could be.
Nathan and I were married in August of 2005. Our first born, Hope Noelle, was born on June 14, 2006 at just 21 weeks. We knew when I was in labor that she would not survive being born so early. Hope had DS and multiple organ defects that were not compatible with life. Hope was our first born, our child whom we loved... she will always be our daughter and part of our family. Hope lived for exact ally an hour here on Earth, but she will live in our hearts forever. Our second born, Coley-Bob, was born in May of 2008. She has overcome vision issues with the help of great doctors at Duke University and is thriving and growing every day. We welcomed our first son in August of 2009. G-Man is 100% boy and loves trucks and balls and playing in the dirt. He is a joy to have in our home. P-Neal joined our family in January of 2011. We are expecting another bundle of joy in September. Our children light up our lives! These are our miracles, life's truest blessings.
